Mother and daughter as enemies Chapter 6

Mother and daughter as enemies Chapter 6

Everything went smoothly. The custody issue 

was resolved, and I found a nice apartment

My house sold quickly. 

It was all so easy; maybe fate wanted me to 

start over

For over a decade, Chloe had been my whole 

world. I spent every waking moment either 

caring for her or working to provide for her

I’d completely lost myself

Now, it was time to take care of me

Г 

I slowed down and started enjoying life

I got a membership at a spa and joined a 

watercolor painting class I’d always wanted to 

take

My whole outlook changed. My new neighbors 

told me I looked like a different person

One day, leaving the spa, I saw a young girl 

practicing ballet positions in a corner

She was dressed in what looked like a spa 

uniform

She must have heard me because she turned

her face lighting up when she saw me

Mrs. Miller!” 

く 

A flicker of recognition went through me. “Do 

I know you?I asked tentatively

She blushed. I used to be in Chloe’s dance 

class. I always saw you picking her up.” 

Andyou helped me once.‘ 

دو 

Her words sparked a memory. This was 

Ashley, Chloe’s classmate

I remembered how, no matter how early

arrived for Chloe’s practice, Ashley was 

always there, already working hard

Everyone said she wasn’t the most talented

but she was definitely the most dedicated

Given time, she would achieve great things

Tragically bar parents had died in a cor 

Tragically, her parents had died in a car 

accident, and she’d had to stop dancing

I’d been so sad when I heard. I’d discreetly 

given her teacher some money and a letter of 

encouragement, hoping to help

I never thought I’d see her again

Ashley looked at me earnestly. Mrs. Miller,

never got to thank you. If it wasn’t for your 

encouragement, I don’t think I would have 

kept going.” 

I haven’t given up on my dream. I’m going to 

be the best I can be, just like you said in your 

letter.” 

Looking at her sweaty face, I was filled with

mix of emotions 

く 

mix of emotions

What one person discards, another cherishes

Despite being knocked down by life, Ashley 

still clung to her dream

I was deeply moved. Maybe I could help her

We talked about her current situation, and my 

desire to help her grew stronger

Do you want to go to dance camp?I asked

Her eyes lit up, then dimmed. It’s too expensive, Mrs. Miller,she said quickly. My 

salaryI can’t afford it.” 

My heart ached. I reached out and stroked 

her hair. “Tell me honestly, do you want to 

go?” 

Yes,” she whispered. “But…..” 

Don’t worry about the money. I’ll take care 

of it.” 

Do you really want to go?” 

Ashley looked at me, her eyes searching 

mine. Why?” 

I smiled at her, at the beads of sweat on her 

nose. “I justI don’t want someone who 

truly loves dance to lose their passion.‘ 

دو 

You deserve to be on stage.” 

دو 

Tears welled up in her eyes. After a long 

pause, she said. Thank you. Mrs. Miller

く 

appreciate the offer.” 

But you have Chloe to take care of. I can’t 

burden you.” 

I sighed. The difference between her and 

Chloe was staggering

I explained my situation and reassured her

Finally, Ashley agreed to accept my help

She insisted on writing me an IOU, pressing 

her thumbprint onto the paper

That small piece of paper felt heavier than 

gold

I wasn’t helping her entirely selflessly. I had 

an ulterior motive

I wanted to show everyone that talent isn’t 

everything

Hard work matters too

I believed Ashley could achieve her dreams 

through effort

Chloe would never understand that
